Lyrical Analysis of...
DON'T LOOK DOWN sad Melodic Pain Rap 11/20
- [Intro –0:00–0:12]
- Yeah, yeah…
- I've been fighting with my demons,
- Trying to find a little meaning…
- Lord, don't let me fall now…
- [Chorus –0:12–0:38]
- Don't look down, I'm too high to fall,
- Had my back against the wall, nobody called,
- I've been walking through the rain, standing tall,
- Lost so many people, I can't lose it all.
- Heart full of scars, but I'm still breathing,
- Told myself I'd stay when everybody leaving,
- I been fighting pain they ain't even seeing,
- Don't look down, gotta keep believing.
- [Verse 1 –0:38–1:09]
- Mama told me, "Son, don't let the world break you,"
- But it's hard when the ones you love betray you,
- I gave my heart to people who would never save you,
- Now I'm staring at the ceiling like, "God, I'm grateful."
- For another day, another chance to change,
- I've been hiding all my hurt behind a smiling face,
- I've been running from the past, but it knows my name,
- Every time I find the sun, here comes another rain.
- Had some nights I couldn't sleep, tears on my pillow,
- Heart getting colder than the winter through my window,
- Everybody sees the smile, never what I've been through,
- I just want somebody real I can hold on to.
- [Chorus –1:09–1:35]
- Don't look down, I'm too high to fall,
- Had my back against the wall, nobody called,
- I've been walking through the rain, standing tall,
- Lost so many people, I can't lose it all.
- Heart full of scars, but I'm still breathing,
- Told myself I'd stay when everybody leaving,
- I been fighting pain they ain't even seeing,
- Don't look down, gotta keep believing.
- [Verse 2 –1:35–2:06]
- I remember being broke with a million dreams,
- Now I'm chasing better days, ain't as easy as it seems,
- Had to learn the hard way love ain't what it means,
- When the closest ones switch up over little things.
- I've been praying every night for a little peace,
- Asking God to take this heavy weight off me,
- I don't need a million dollars just to feel complete,
- I just need my family healthy and my soul at ease.
- If I fall, I'm getting up, I ain't staying on the ground,
- They ain't hear me when I cried, but they hear me now,
- Built my dreams from all the pieces when my world broke down,
- I'm too close to giving up, so I won't look down.
- [Outro –2:06–2:19]
- Don't look down, keep your head up high,
- Even broken wings can learn again to fly,
- If tomorrow never comes, at least I know I tried,
- Through the darkest nights, I'm reaching for the light…
- Don't look down…
